The awardee, after opening his speech in Duala language and expressing his gratitude for the recognition, reminded it is time to reconnect the children of Africa living on the continent with those living in the United States into a powerful synergy to change the world. Africa is calling and the Prince said he is waiting for the African American diaspora in Cameroon as usual and particularly the younger generation emphasizing on the importance of Youth Empowerment.

The Cameroonian Government sponsored the flight to the United States through the official support of the Ministry of Arts and Culture and the Ministry of foreign affairs provided the diplomatic backing. AfricAvenir International Foundation firmly salutes our governmental institutions for making the celebration of Cameroonian talent possible in the most powerful country, the United States of America.
 
Prince Kum’a Ndumbe III had already been honored with two awards in Atlanta in 2013. He was inducted into the Inaugural Hall Of Fame of Honorees by The World Tourism Awards and The A.D. King Foundation along with 99 celebrities from the world; he simultaneously received the personal award of 2013 Culture and Heritage scholar. This amounts to three international awards since 2013 for the founder and president of AfricAvenir International, for his “excellent leadership and continuous efforts at AfricAvenir by engaging in political education and information dissemination across Africa and around the world – which serves as a shining example that other countries can immolate”
